Chapter 7 She Was in Trouble Cecelia learned a lot about Andres from Florence, which made Cecelia feel shocked, angry, and guilty.
43% 14:49 Andres had been suffering from anorexia. He only ate the food cooked by his father and didnât even take a look at the food cooked by others.
Remington had been in a coma for the past month. Andres would rather starve than eat the food cooked by others. Only when he was extremely hungry would he eat some bread.
The boy got part of the wounds on his body because he fooled around naughtily and he got the other parts of the wounds because he had been bullied by his cousins.
Cecelia realized that the two chubby boys were the children of Remingtonâs cousin. They often bullied Andres whose mother wasnât Andres couldnât speak or complain, so they had nothing to fear.
As Cecelia learned more and more about it, she felt so heartbroken that she could hardly breathe.
After taking a bath, Andres stopped bleeding. Cecelia wiped the water on his body and finally saw his face.
Andres had the same face as Max and Cyrus, but he was more confident and mature than them, although he shouldnât be so mature at such a young age.
âAndres!â
After dressing her son up, Cecelia held him tightly in her arms again, feeling his little body, his veins, and his powerful heartbeat.
This was the first child she gave birth to.
The blood and bones in her body were closely connected with the childâs.
Cecelia felt that her life seemed to be full after she found her son.
She told her son inwardly, âAndres, I will never leave you again. Nor will I let anyone bully you anymore. I will take good care of you and make up for what I owe you.
Before the mother and the son could hug each other for long, al servant ran up to them in a hurry and said, âBad news! Madam Maria and Young Madam Lydia are here. They have even brought someone along with them.â
âWhatâs going on?â Florence wondered what happened and followed the servant downstairs to have a look.
Chapter 7 She Was in Trouble 43% 14:49 Outside the Aroma Villa, Maria, and her daughterâinâlaw, Lydia came to take revenge aggressively.
âCome out, Ophelia!â
âLook at my children! How dare you hit him like that! Come out right. now!â
Florence quickly ran upstairs to Cecelia and said, âMiss Linsey, did you hit Madam Mariaâs grandsons today?â
âAre they two chubby boys? Yes, I hit them. Whatâs wrong?â asked Cecelia.
âMadam Maria and Young Madam Lydia come to take revenge and ask you out. What should we do now?â Florence and the other servants were very nervous. Clearly, they were afraid of Maria.
âThen letâs go out and have a look!â
Cecelia asked Andres to stay in the room. She went downstairs alone and walked out of the villa.
âWhy are you screaming here? I thought some wild dogs were barking outside. Itâs so noisy!â
Cecelia turned her finger in her ear at the gate of the villa.
When Maria and Lydia saw the woman in a wedding dress coming out, they frowned and asked, âWho are you? Why are you dressed like this? Where is Ophelia?â
âI am just Ophelia.â
âHow is that possible? Maria, I know Ophelia. Iâm sure that she isnât. Ophelia.â Lydia blew Ceceliaâs cover in public.
The surrounding people were all surprised. They stared at Cecelia and realized that Cecelia was pretending to be Ophelia, who was supposed to marry Remington to bring blessing to him.
âSince you are not Ophelia, then you are just a fake. How dare your bully my grandsons?â Maria shouted angrily.
Lydia added fuel to the fire. âYou just scolded us for barking. How dare you!â
Clearly, bother Maria and Lydia were not friendly people, and their eyes seemed to be filled with anger.
I âWhen did I bully your grandsons?â Cecelia asked fearlessly, folding her arms over her chest.
Maria pulled out her two grandsons and asked, âKalvin, Barry, tell me the truth! Who hit you? Iâd get justice for you.
Chapter 7 She Was in Trouble âItâs her!â
The two chubby boys angrily pointed at Cecelia.
Maria said angrily, âDid you hear that? Look carefully. Whatâs on the faces of Kalvin and Barry? Their faces got swollen because of your slap. There are even handprints on their faces.â
âHow can you be sure that their faces are swollen not because they are fat?â Cecelia asked indifferently.
Lydia was pissed off and felt sorry for her children. âHow can you be so vicious? Do you hit othersâ
children because you donât have one? How can you still deny it?â
Cecelia snorted and asked, âYou keep blaming me for hitting them. Why donât you ask me why I hit them?â
Maria and Lydia glared at her angrily and didnât say anything. Cecelia continued, âYour two grandsons bullied Andres. I just couldnât stand it and taught them a lesson so that they can know what they should do and what they shouldnât. Did I do anything wrong?â
âHa, Iâve never seen an eloquent woman like you. Youâre an adult. When you bullied children, you still make up such a lame excuse? My children bullied Andres? How could that even be possible? Kálvin and Barry are on good terms with Andres. They are cousins. Donât slander my children here, okay?â
Lydia shouted, protecting her sons.
âCousins? All right. Let me ask you, children. Did you hit Andres? Did you put mud and leaves into his mouth? Did you scold him as a dumb bastard?â Cecelia asked as she looked at the two children.
The two chubby boys were typical bullies at home, and they became bolder with the support of their grandmother and mother.
They immediately denied it.
âNo, we didnât bully Andres.â
âMom, Grandma, this woman came to hit us when we played with Andres.
Hearing her grandsonsâ words, Maria got enraged. âYou fake, did. you hear that? My grandsons are good boys. How dare you distort the truth? You vicious woman!â
âIâm vicious and distorted the truth? Ha! Donât ever bully Andres just because heâs young and unable to speak. Iâm telling you, from now on, I wonât let you bully him anymore.
When Cecelia said this, Andres had already come to her back. Looking at her back and listening to her words, he felt very strange.
Chapter 7 She Was in Trouble 43% 14:49 It turned out that this was how it felt to be protected by his mother.
âWho do you think you are? Youâre just a fake sent here to bring blessing to the dying Remington. Donât be so arrogant!â
Lydia rushed up to hit Cecelia, but Cecelia grabbed her hair and slapped her hard across the face.
After that, Cecelia even gave her a few kicks.
âOuch!â Lydia fell to the ground.
It shocked everyone. Even Florence and the other servants were so terrified that their jaws dropped.
âOh, my God! Miss Linsey is in big trouble now. She actually offended Madam Maria and Young Madam Lydia. I donât even dare to think about what will happen if Madam Nelson knows about it,â
thought they to themselves.
Maria asked someone to help Lydia up and yelled angrily,, âYou bitch! How dare you hit my daughterâ
inâlaw? Somebody! Catch her and teach her á good lesson!â
